I seen many doctors and am tired of taken pills. sleeping pills dont work pain killers dont work I even try various creams i am loosing weight my eating sucks cause it seems like lots of work to eat cause i sweat to much. I cant do to much work now cause of my feet and the pain is driving me crazy. I can only stand for a short period of time then the burning and aching start. I am constantly rubbing my feet especially the right side. I went for blood test and they said it was my thyroid so they gave me pills. I been going through menopause now for the last 9 yrs.
